Commentary and analysis on American politics, culture, and national identity, U.S. foreign policy and international relations, and the state of education
- from a neoconservative perspective! - Keeping an eye on the communist-left so you don't have to!

In the last century, and depending on whose numbers you believe, Marxism/Leninism/communism or whatever other "ism" you want to call it, managed to directly or indirectly murder between 100 and 200 million people.

Should present trends continue unaltered, I wonder how many are destined to be killed by this same murderous ideology, or some derivative thereof, during the 91 years remaining in this century?

Technology has advanced very rapidly in the last several years. What a shame that people don't seem to be able to advance along with it. Obama will probably be safe with all the security he has, but for the life of me I can't understand why he wouldn't be safe. After all, he's all about socializing everything!

Perhaps if people would pay attention to history perhaps they wouldn't be so eager to repeat it.
